Bugatti has already produced 80 percent of the Chiron cars

Six years ago Bugatti began the story of 500 Chiron cars that will be powered by the W16. All the cars are already sold out and so far the company, which became part of the Rimac Group a few months ago, has produced 80 percent of the planned cars.

With the published photo of the 400th Bugatti Chiron Super Sport, Bugatti celebrates the success of the expensive hypercar, and 20 workers worked on assembling 1,800 components. “Every part of the Chiron is a masterpiece, and assembly requires the most dedicated and exquisite specialists in the world. Our painting process, or finishing process, is so detailed that it takes up to eight layers to achieve the desired effect. Each layer is polished to perfection, a deep and brilliant mirror effect,” said Cristophe Piochon, president of Bugatti.

Bugatti continues to produce the remaining 100 examples, which will not be the last to be powered by the W16 engine. The honor will go to the Mistral and Bolide models.

Bugatti Chiron Super Sport is powered by a turbocharged 8-liter W16 engine with 1,600 hp (1,177 kW) and 1,180 lb-ft (1,600 Nm) of torque. It reaches 62 mph in 2.4 seconds, 124 mph (200 km / h) in 5.8 seconds, and to 186 mph (300 km / h) in about 12 seconds. The top speed that the Super Sport can reach is electronically limited to 273 mph (440 km / h). Power is transmitted to all wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

The car is painted green combined with Fierce alloy details around the front fascia, in the central part of the rims and elsewhere, while the hood is in Nocturne color. It is equipped with Sport Magnesium rims that raise the appearance of the hypercar to a higher level. The same color combination can be seen in the interior of the car. The seats are upholstered in a combination of green and Beluga black leather. A special atmosphere is provided by the Sky View roof, which provides natural light.

Mate Rimac on the ten-year plan for Bugatti

All car companies have announced their long-term plans, or will announce them, about what we can expect in the future when it comes to the current offer as well as new models. In an interview with Automobilwoche, Mate Rimac talked about the ten-year plan for Bugatti.

Bugatti Mistral

The demand for SUV cars is expanding. Many manufacturers such as Aston Martin, Bentley and Rolls Royce have joined Porsche, BMW, Mercedes and other car manufacturers that have had SUVs in their range for many years. Some have resisted it for a long time, like McLaren and Ferrari, but they too will soon introduce their SUVs. One of the few brands that still successfully resists this trend is Bugatti.

In the interview, Rimac said that Bugatti will not produce an SUV in the near future, but that they will not produce a fully electric Bugatti either. At least not in the next ten years. “A purely electric version is not included in our 10-year plan for Bugatti. There will also be no SUV,” said Mate Rimac. This does not mean that Bugatti is completely rejecting electrification, as it aims to produce a car with an electric range of 31 miles (50 km).

Bugatti Mistral

Bugatti recently unveiled its new model, the Bugatti Mistral, the last to be powered by the W16 petrol engine. It is a limited edition based on the Chiron. It costs 5 million euros, and all 99 cars have already been sold.

The ultra-sporty model is longer than the standard Chiron, thanks to a new aerodynamic carbon body. It is painted in black with orange details that are reminiscent of the original Bugatti Veyron Super Sport World Record Edition, which was the fastest production car in 2010.

Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ is powered by a centrally located turbocharged 8-liter W16 engine with 1,600 hp (1,177 kW) and 1,180 lb-ft (1,600 Nm) of torque. Thanks to its impressive power, it reaches 62 mph (100 km / h) in just 2.4 seconds, 124 mph (200 km / h) in 5.8 seconds, and 186 mph (300 km / h) in about 12 seconds. The top speed that the Super Sport 300+ can reach is electronically limited to 273 mph (440 km/h). Power is transmitted to all wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

In 2019, the hypercar was the fastest production car in the world, reaching a speed of 490.484 km/h at the Ehra-Lessien test track in Germany.
